Updating licenses

Fops,

I have committed the perl script bin/lic_to_2 in FOP_0-20-0_Alt-Design. 
  It's function is to substitute license 2.0 for 1.1.

It is called as

$ lic_to_2 --lic2 {file containing license 2.0 text} {file to modify}

The intended usage is something like:

$ find . -name '*java'|while read file;\
mv $file $file.orig;\
do lic_to_2 --lic2 {lic2 file} $file.orig > $file;\
done

I have already committed java and plain text versions of 2.0 to the root 
directory of FOP_0-20-0_Alt-Design.  Note that these license files 
contain a {YEARS} marker which is replaced from the actual years in the 
source file copyright notice when the script is run.

When we get the OK, I'll use this to update the licenses in alt-design, 
and, if that works, I can also do the maint and HEAD sources.

Ahem...

That's because I cut-and-pasted the 2.0 license file into the pattern 
Eclipse uses when constructing a new class.  I forgot to fix {YEARS}. 
Those new files haven't been run through the perl filter.  Thanks for 
picking this up, Jeremias.

Very cool! I did the whole thing manually back when I exchanged the
"illegal" short licence with the long one.

But I noticed the following:
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/xml-fop/src/java/org/apache/fop/area/inline/InlineArea.java?rev=1.2.2.1

It looks like the {YEARS} marker seems not to have worked on some files
you checked in yesterday.
